Bio:
I'm a TESOL certified, passionate teacher! I teach my adult students based on their personal interests and hobbies to maintain their interest in studying. I apply interactive methods of teaching with children and make sure they view me as their older friend rather than a teacher. I believe learning is the most effective when it is enjoyed rather than forced.
My teaching methodology:
I generally categorize students into 2 groups: 1. - I know grammar, but I want to improve my speaking. 2. - I want to improve my speaking, but I barely remember any grammar I studied in high school. Based on your skills, I'll design a personalized lesson plan special for you. Regardless of the student's level, I hold speaking sessions for all my students to give them a chance to learn through practice, as I guide and correct them.
My teaching background:
I have 5+ years of experience. My students range from 3-50 y.o. From basic grammar and vocabulary to preparing for an exam or a job interview, I have been able to to help my students succeed. I have the privilege to have students from all around the world who also share about their culture and language.
My background outside of teaching:
Besides being a full-time teacher I am also a part-time artist. I create digital art, I paint and play the guitar. Every person loves at least one form of art, be it movies, music, sculpting or singing. This common ground helps me connect with my students and bond with them. My family is from a tiny country called Armenia, so I have a combination of two cultures within myself)
